New Releases: 10 April 2019

FEATURED TITLES:

Symbiote Spider-Man #1

Everyone knows that Spider-Man’s infamous black suit would someday become the wicked web-slinger called Venom — but what happened before Peter Parker discovered the black suit’s sinister secret? Find out in this dynamic tale from comics legends Peter David and Greg Land!

Set during the original “Black Suit Saga,” this is an all-new tale that pits the wall-crawling wonder against that most mystifying of menaces… Mysterio!

Batman #68

Batman is making his way to the end of his Knightmares, but his unseen enemy has a few more tricks up his sleeve. It’s time once again to stick a knife into the Caped Crusader’s broken heart, letting the groom-that-could-have-been peer in on the bachelorette (or should that be “Catchelorette”?) party that never was.

Artist Amanda Conner (Harley Quinn) rejoins the Bat-family for this month’s special story — because who else you gonna invite to a shindig like this?

Fairlady #1

Every fantasy epic ends with a war. But what happens when the war is over? After posing as a man to join the army, Jenner Faulds returns home to The Feld for a new start as a “Fairman”—a specially licensed private investigator. But sexism didn’t end on the battlefield, and as the only “Fairlady,” Jenner gets stuck with the cases nobody else wants. Hitting the streets to solve The Feld’s overlooked mysteries, Jenner finds that the smallest cases hide the biggest secrets.

Writer Brian Schirmer, artist Claudia Balboni (Star Trek), and colorist Marissa Louise team up for Fairlady — an all-new series with the procedural case-solving of Magnum P.I. and Fables, but set in a vibrant, Rat Queens-like high fantasy world. Plus, this — and every — issue contains a complete 30-page story!

Faithless #1

Faith likes to dabble with magic. Her friends think it’s cute — and not just a little off-putting, but it’s part of her charm and her warped search for purpose in a world that makes too much sense. But she’s a true believer and knows there is a power within her reach. She’s right, of course. It just took a while for that magic, that temptation, that unknowable thing to find her… In short — Faith is bored as hell. And Hell has noticed.

Ghostbusters: 35th Anniversary – Real Ghostbusters

The 35th Anniversary of Ghostbusters is upon us! Let’s celebrate with four spooktacular weekly comics featuring different Ghostbuster teams in all-new standalone adventures!

The Real Ghostbusters keep losing business to a flashy new rival ghost-catching company: Spooks Away! They seem to have better gear, better threads… better everything! In fact, Spooks Away seems determined to ruin the RGB. But there’s something far more sinister than a hostile takeover going on here, and it’s up to Ray Stantz to go undercover to find out who — or what — is behind Spooks Away’s sudden rise to supernatural elimination superstardom.

Detective Comics #1001

After 1,000 issues, you’d think Batman could finally have a break… but no: as a new era dawns, he’s facing the most dangerous threat of his career! The Arkham Knight has arrived in Gotham City with an entire round table of deadly allies, and their first encounter will leave Batman shaken to his core!

She Could Fly: The Lost Pilot #1

The acclaimed miniseries continues!

Luna has crash-landed back into her life after spending a year in a mental institution… but that might just mean she’s closer to the edge than she’s ever been before. After discovering clues about the Flying Woman’s missing family, Luna’s obsession reignites, threatening to again unravel her fragile mind. Meanwhile, a mysterious guru appears in the sewers of Chicago and a Russian mercenary seeks old secret technology, and the specter of violence begins to loom over everyone once more. Luna begins to wonder… will she even survive long enough to go insane?

Oblivion Song #14

Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion – Princess Leia #1

Bounty Hunter Princess! With Han Solo frozen in carbonite in the palace of Jabba the Hutt, Princess Leia prepares for a daring rescue by taking on the identity of the bounty hunter Boushh. But in order to succeed, she’ll have to prove herself in her new identity to the ruthless bounty hunter Bossk! With her life and all of her principles on the line, how far will Leia go to rescue a scoundrel?

Co-starring Chewbacca and Lando, who almost certainly have a bad feeling about this!
